Washing Action

Though the rinsing capabilities of this washer effectively rinses out any detergent residue
from the clothes, if one feels the need for an extra rinse or two, all that's needed is to set it to do so with just a few touches on its digital LED display and control panel. For instance. when soaking some clothes for a long time to get rid of stains, the Frigidaire ATF8000 can be set to start washing automatically after long hours on stand by.
Icare Intelligent Washing
Different types of fabrics merit different kinds of laundering methods. The Frigidaire ATF8000 takes this into consideration with its iCare Intelligent washing and iWash Intelligent options that automatically weigh the load, analyze, and compute the necessary amount of water and detergent, as well as the type of washing cycle to be used.
From flimsy negligees to sturdy jeans, users can rest easy that fabrics will come out clean, sanitized, and still in excellent condition. The Frigidaire ATF8000's built-in thermostat helps keep fabrics in great shape and color by controlling the temperature of the water used for laundering.
